AUTOMATION STORY

Supplier assignment and WhatsApp dispatch

Every tour needs guides, drivers and partners informed of exact dates, pickup points and group details. Retyping these into chat messages invited errors, and there was no record of what was actually sent.

Live in production

Live in production, including multi-supplier tours.

Trigger

A supplier, guide or driver is assigned to a tour in the CRM.

Human checkpoint

No message leaves without operator approval of the exact recipient and content.

If something fails

If dispatch fails or a supplier is unreachable, the operator contacts them directly — the prepared details remain available.

The manual process before

The operator scrolled the booking, copied details into WhatsApp by hand for each supplier, and hoped nothing was mistyped or forgotten.

What the system does

  1. System collects tour details from the booking record
  2. A dispatch message is prepared for the assigned supplier
  3. The operator reviews recipient and content
  4. On approval, the message is sent via WhatsApp and recorded

Verified operational value

  • Details are never retyped, so they are never mistyped
  • Multiple suppliers on one tour each get their own confirmed message
  • Every dispatch is recorded against the booking
